-v Vertical. Make the output run vertically in one column (the current column) down the paper, ignoring any form movement characters or embedded commands.
-i ISO mode. Select, at random, a different ISO code set to use while printing the rest of the job.
-w Write a taunting message on the user's terminal after the jobs have been whacked. If the user is not logged in locally, then mail will be sent instead.
-j Jam. Self-explanitory.
-v Voltage surge. Send a voltage spike down the transmit lead(s) of the printer. Physical contact with the printer should be avoided while using the -v option.
